Recipe's preparation

Butterflied Leg of Lamb with Vegetables &amp; Gravy

2. Add wine, stock & water. Into the Varoma base (tray removed) add root veges then place lamb on top (cut into 2 pieces if there is a 'flap' so that it sits flatter), making sure there are gaps for the steam to filter through the veges. Steam 35mins / Varoma / sp2.

3. Check to see how pink the meat is still. If veges are tender, remove and place into a ThermoServer to keep warm. If meat is done to your liking, remove also. Otherwise, add peas and continue cooking, same settings, for a further 5-10mins.

4. Once meat is done to your liking, set the veges aside in a Thermoserver while you brown the lamb on both sides either on the BBQ or in a hot pan.

5. While meat is browning, strain the gravy through your TM basket into another jug, discard the rosemary & onion pieces then return the gravy liquid to the TM bowl. Insert buttefly, add the cornflour, vegemite and salt & pepper to taste and cook 6 mins / Varoma / sp2 or until thickened.

Tip

Steaming the lamb produces a very tender piece of meat. I have tried butterflied lamb on the BBQ (it tends to be a bit tough) and in the crockpot (it shrinks). You don't have to brown it at the end, but it does bring out the flavours and looks less anaemic.

Experiment with different veges in season and according to your family's taste. See EDC for aprox. steaming times and what size to cut them.

I have just updated the

I have just updated the recipe to include a tsp of vegemite in the gravy, which I have been adding for extra colour & flavour lately. You might want to adjust the amount of salt to taste. Also, this will be more flavoursome if using TM meat stock, rather than vegetable.

I put the veges in oven on

I put the veges in oven on high when making gravy to make them crispy don't know what I did to gravy it was very thin. Will have again the flavours were amazing and the lamb melted in your mouth. Great twist to a lamb roast

Winning! First time ever

Winning! First time ever cooking a leg of lamb and I was nervous, but so easy and so worth it. Thank you. Will definitely be cooking this again. The gravy was delicious too. I did add another 2 teaspoons of cornflour after straining it into my gravy boat and it thickened to our personal preference perfectly. So so delicious!

Loved the ease of this

Loved the ease of this recipe. I didn't bother Browning the may and it was delicious. My gravy didn't thicken up at all which was disappointing. I ended up having to do it on the stovetop and added a tablespoon of Gravox to it As the cornflour just clumped. Bit overall the flavours were delicious and the meat tender. .. And it was super easy to prepare and cook!

This recipe is DELISHIOUS!

This recipe is DELISHIOUS! Will be one of the family favourites for sure! My boys even went back for seconds of the vegetables... So so easy and so so tasty! Thanks for sharing! Who would of thought we would steam Lamb? Love it!

Really Delicious! Turned out

Really Delicious! Turned out great and the family loved it just the same as an Oven Roast! So much quicker and easier than a traditional roast and much healthier! I also quickly browned the root vegetables in the pan after the Lamb for extra Flavour! Thank you!
